In a diragram, when we copy an element (without Paste tool), the layout is not copied. The layout is the default one (as on creation) and we lose the relative location of inner elements. It was nice if those relative locations was preserved.

We should look into the copy/paste layout mechanism and in the diagram initialization code which recopy the layout of the initial diagram when the new one is create thanks to a DiagramCreationDescription tool.
